The 21-year-old lauded: “It’s four clean sheets in the league and we are doing really well at the moment. Myself, Scott Gibson, Bryan Wharton, Wullie Muir and the whole defensive unit have been solid recently.

“But it’s throughout the team, the boys work very hard for each other and the team spirit and desire not to concede is immense. We all want to put in the hard work needed to succeed.

The former Falkirk kid added: “That was a game we were very disappointed to lose but, to go so far in a cup competition and get the victories we did against teams like Dumbarton, has only made us more determined to succeed in the league.

“We played really well against Peterhead, just like we did against Forfar in our Scottish Cup defeat, and the fact we have gone toe-to-toe with them has given us the desire to say: ‘Let’s go up and be playing those teams every week.’”
